ELECTRICAL: The panel box contains high voltage
components. Only authorized service personnel
should be allowed inside the box. Authorized service
personnel should be allowed inside the box only
after the baler has been locked-out and tagged-out.
FOREWORD: Before entering any part of the baler, be
sure that all sources of energy have been shut off, all
potential hazards have been eliminated, and the baler
is locked-out and tagged-out in accordance with
O S H A and ANSI requirements. Before servicing the
hydraulic system or the inside of the bale chamber,
THE PLATEN MUST BE PROPERLY SUPPORTED A S

The specific lock-out and
tag-out instructions may vary from company to company (i.e.
multiple locks may be required, or other machinery may need to
be locked-out and tagged-out). The following instructions are
provided as minimum guidelines.
HYDRAULIC: Stored hydraulic energy must be removed from the baler hydraulic
circuit for complete lock-out and tag-out. Make sure that this energy has been relieved
by manually depressing the solenoid valve pin located in the center of the coil end of
each valve. See Diagrams on pages 2-4 and 2-11.
